How Long Do You Bake Meat?
The length of time to bake meat depends on the type and cut of meat, as well as the desired doneness and oven temperature. For example, a 1-inch thick beef steak may take around 10-12 minutes to bake at 400°F for medium-rare, while a large roast may need several hours to bake at a lower temperature until it reaches the desired internal temperature. It is important to use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the meat for food safety.
